help! where is wgic.msi ?! Cant find client for Wingate VPN

Postby eripley » Aug 06 04 9:16 am

Installed the wingate vpn server on two different machines neither has the client on it. Tried to download elsewhere to no avail. Have the server setup but how am I supposed to setup a client? im onsite and need some help asap. This is a trial and if I can get it to work we will register. Otherwise I will have to try something else. I am only onsite till tomorrow. Please help me configure a client.
thanks in advance.

VPN Server is one PC, which you install WinGateVPN on. This machine has several clients (LAN machines) which do not need anything installed on them. They do need to be told how to connect out through the VPN - this is done by default gateways, a rip v 2 listener or by using static routes.

The VPN Client is another PC, normally situated somewhere else, which you again install WinGateVPN on. This machine may or may not have clients (LAN Machines) which need the same configuration done as the Server's LAN machines.

The difference between the two is:

Server: Setup a Hosted VPN
Client: Setup a Joining VPN

Have a look at the "Understanding WinGate VPN" document in our White Papers section - it gives you good examples of how to configure and test your VPN Setup.
